Solutions to Low Water Pressure
Clogged Faucets
If you are just experiencing low water pressure in a single outlet, then it is likely to be a localized issue, such as a clogged faucet. We can inspect the outlet in particular that is experiencing low water pressure by removing the aerator from the faucet and check if there are any sediments or deposits of unknown material causing the clog. We can then remove the clog or replace the fixture altogether to restore your water pressure.
Leaking or Running Water
Running or leaking toilets/faucets are also a source of low water pressure, and one way to identify a leak is by the sound of running water from a toilet or faucet when the fixture is not in use. This means that the leak is putting a drain on your overall water pressure. There are many different ways that we can check for a leak, and if this is what’s causing your low water pressure, then we will fix it accordingly.
Open Valves
Even a valve that is shut off can be partially open. One way you can tell if a valve is open is to compare the pressure of your hot water versus your cold water; if the water pressure is lower according to the temperature, then you may have to check if one of the valves is open. We can inspect your water line valve and make any adjustments if need be.
Build-Up in Pipes
Sediment and natural deposits are also likely to cause low water pressure in your plumbing. This is because water contains calcium and lime, which form the natural deposits that build-up in your plumbing by lining the inside of the pipes. Sediment can also clog your faucets inside your home. The build-up of natural minerals in your plumbing can also have a corrosive effect on your water pipes, which can create breakages (which are also a cause of low water pressure).
Other People Using Water
This may not seem to be a possibility, but your neighbors can also be causing your low water pressure. An indication of this is if you experience low water pressure at certain times during the day, lining up with the work schedule of your neighbors. If this is the case, then is an issue caused by your municipal water supply. We can work directly with your water supplier to resolve any problems you and your neighbors are experiencing low water pressure.
Clogged Showerhead
Your showerhead can also be the cause of low water pressure, and to fix it we will need to detach it and clean it out. Calcium tends to collect in showerheads, and we can remove the build-up and restore your water pressure. Clogged showerheads are also a localized issue, which also makes it much easier to address the problem.
Benefits of Water Pressure Regulation
Low water pressure requires you to use more water to use your washing machines or shower, and this could have a harmful effect on your water bill and the environment

How do you diagnose low water pressure?
There are several troubleshooting procedures we undergo to diagnose the cause of the issue. We have to determine if the problem is isolated to your home or if it originates from municipal or well water supplies. You can inspect the plumbing in your home to determine if there are any leaks or breakages, and you can also inspect your faucets and showerheads to see if the problem originates there.
Why is the water pressure for my hot water low?
Water pressure differences when it comes to the temperature usually comes down to the design of your water valve or the location of the hot water tank. In many cases, the valve is insufficient at controlling the pressure of the water which is the result of a design flaw. Also, hot water tanks are usually located in a low-lying area that requires more plumbing for the water to reach your faucet or showerhead.
